Life Cycle Stages
The various stages in the life cycle of a domain name can be confusing and vary depending on the TLD. However, the following is the basic life cycle stages for .com, .net, and .org domain names:
- Active (1-10 years)
After purchasing a domain, it will be active for 1 to 10 years, depending on the length of the registration term purchased. - On Hold (1-45 days)
When the registrant does not renew their domain name, it will be put on hold for a period of 1-45 days before a delete command is issued. If you have a website for your domain name, it may no longer operate during this period. The original registrant can still renew their domain name during this period. - Redemption Grace Period (30 days)
After the hold period, the domain will be put into a redemption grace period (RGP) by the registry. During this time your website will no longer operate. The original registrant can renew their domain name for a redemption fee. - Pending Delete Period (5 days)
After the registry issues the delete command, the domain goes into the pending delete period, just before it’s released to the public. - Available
Once the deletion process completes, the domain name is released to the public for registration.
